Rashford good substitute
Since 2016 when Marcus Rashford made his first appearance in Europe, the player has scored seven goals, being the maximum amount among his teammates, the player after his injuries starts to take an important role in the squad.
Omonia has a tough time away from home
After 17 away games, Omonia has not been able to get a win, in total 3 draws and 14 defeats in that period and historically speaking they have only managed two wins in 36 games.
United suffers at home
Manchester United have lost the last two games at Old Trafford playing in European competition, the losers of those defeats have been Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad, something in their favor tonight is that they have not lost three in a row at home.

Omonia wants to avoid being last
Omonia of the Cyprus league surprised with its qualification to the Europa League because in its local league it is not a team that is used to be in the top positions, usually we see Apoel compete in these instances, but being already in this competition the team has not had a good time, in three games played the team has taken three defeats, now they are last in group E and their elimination is imminent, to avoid being last they must get a win in the remaining three games and what better for the team than at Old Trafford, Omonia must show some competition and make things impossible for United.
Manchester United to continue on the right track
Manchester United had a bad start to the season both in the Premier League and in the Europa League, the second was in the start against Real Sociedad where they were surprised and by the minimum added the first defeat, Ten Hag's team has gone through ups and downs throughout the season and it is to be expected, as the coach himself has said that fighting for the titles will be very complicated, but in the future it will be much easier with the plan he intends to implement, the team has two consecutive victories, the first one against Omonia 1-3 and the second one against Everton 1-2, the team is going through very good moments getting victories and suddenly dropping points, but in the Premier League they are in fifth position with one match less, little by little the work on the pitch is showing and a victory against Omonia would leave them almost with one foot in the next round.
Group E could set the leaders on track
This Europa League matchday 4 could put Real Sociedad and Manchester United on the road to the next round, both teams will face teams that recently won in the previous matchday, Manchester United has the opportunity to link consecutive victories, improve team morale, Omonia has nothing to lose and much to gain in the theater of dreams so it will be interesting to see the position on the field.
Welcome
Good afternoon to all VAVEL readers! Welcome to the blog commentary of Manchester United vs Omonia in the Europa League. The match will take place at Old Trafford Stadium, at 3:00 pm ET.
